Doesn't Argentina have some of the best beef in the world? I have no doubt that Billy Joe's Artisinal Grass Fed Texas Steers would be better, but American factory farms overall? No way. I'd trust Vanguard more than the FDA/USDA in that respect.

I'll be up here with my Alberta AAA Prime though, them separatists cowboys know their cattle.

EU too....gotta put "our" producers outta business too!

EU-Mercosur Agreement includes provisions affecting beef trade between the EU and Argentina, though it is a bloc-to-bloc deal involving all Mercosur countries (Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, and Uruguay), not a bilateral agreement solely with Argentina.

Tariff Reductions and Quotas: Under the agreement, the EU will allow a new annual beef import quota of 99,000 tonnes from all Mercosur countries combined, subject to a 7.5% tariff.  This replaces the current higher tariffs, such as the 20% duty on the Hilton quota, under which Argentina currently exports 29,500 tonnes of high-quality beef to the EU annually.

Impact on Argentina: Argentine beef exporters would benefit from lower tariffs and improved market access, especially as the EU is a high-value market.  However, the total Mercosur quota represents only about 0.6% of the region's total beef production, and Argentina's share will be limited.  The agreement does not allow duty-free access to the EU market.

Safeguards and Conditions: The deal includes strict sanitary, environmental, and grass-fed requirements.  As of 2026, only deforestation-free beef will be allowed into the EU, applying to all imports under the agreement.  A bilateral safeguard clause can be triggered if imports threaten to harm EU farmers.

EU Farmer Opposition: The agreement has faced strong protests from European farmers, especially in France, who fear unfair competition from lower-cost South American producers. Some French supermarkets, including Carrefour, have pledged not to sell Mercosur beef.

Current Status: As of early 2026, the agreement has been approved by the European Council and is expected to be signed, but it still requires ratification by the European Parliament and the national congresses of all Mercosur countries before it can enter into force.
